    No you weren't!!
    Check the list! http://boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=54147827&postcount=856

    I was seat 8! And I was sitting there thinking to myself "Oh f*ck have I got the wrong table" every time it came up :D
    You were meant to be on T87!

    I was the guy who donked his chips off to you with AA vs your straight.
    You even gave me a chance with the "If you push I'll be put to a decision ho ho ho" speech, but after the break I'd decided that if I didn't double up soon, I was out of there, so when the hand came up I decided that if you had it you had it, and if you didn't then there was my double up but I wasn't being left with 3/4k chips by folding and trying to rebuild it.

    WP though, you played very well while I was at the table.

    LOL good to put a face to the name, yeah u had a good bit invested in that pot and wanted to get you across the line for a call. I was told table 81 by the organisers....ah well. Thought u played well also just got unlucky in a few spots, thought there was easy enough chips at that table seems as though any decent bet or raise was getting through, there was a hell of a lot of limping which i took advantage of.

    Yeah definitely nice to put another face to a name.

    Also, wouldn't take the hand shaking as a tell btw, unless you're wondering if I'm tired or hungover :D

    I'd just like to say well done to the students/unknown/drop outs and NickyOD for taking this down even after team captain busted out first...ahem.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,296 ✭✭✭valor


    hope sam wins it

    I completely agree, that wastrel of a team captain busted out with QQ vs TT in a over 105k pot at 200/400. I must agree there was some superb donkey/genius play being done by them. Now the only thing left is for NickyOD to go on and take the entire thing down..... and share it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,434 ✭✭✭cardshark202


    gogogo sam.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 279 ✭✭derek2222_ie

    41st. €410. lol donkaments.

    Two hands:

    1)Blinds 6k / 12k. I have 370k. Folded to button who is a young Dublin lad and has 140kish in chips. He makes it 42k. Sb folds. I see 55 and make it 200k setting him in.

    I have only been at the table for two and a half orbits during which I have folded everything bar one hand where I raised from early position and took the blinds.

    Anyway, button thinks for 30 seconds and sticks the rest in. Flips Ac3c and looks surprised to be behind to my 55. :confused: He gets there on the river.

    2)Blinds still 6k / 12k - but going up in 10mins. A table across the road has been broken and a couple of players sit down at the table. One of the new arrivals is a French dude with 450k+. He is dealt in but all his chips are still in a rack. Folds to him on the button and he makes it 35k without looking at his cards. I find AJo in the small blind and quickly shove for 275k.

    BB is a Swedish player who has impressed me during the 40 mins I have been at this table. I have got back up to 275k after the above hand through a couple of blind steals in succession.

    Anyway, the BB tanks and asks the French guy how much he has. French guy indicates that he covers. Then, as the BB is deliberating - THE FRENCH GUY ON THE BUTTON FOLDS HIS HAND OUT OF TURN CLEARLY AND OBVIOUSLY :eek:

    Swedish guy now doesn't have extra complications and makes a good call with 1010; and wins the flip for a 590k pot against my AJ.

    I note to the French guy that it was disgraceful etiquette to fold there and he just shrugs his shoulders and looks at me in a "**** you, I don't care" type of way.


    Two days for that. Nice.

    Then went to see the Kingdom. Good movie, recommended. Jamie Foxx is a g00t actor.

    Hard luck to Sam - she clearly played a fantastic shortstack game and worked hard to grind her way through a huge field. Pity her AK couldn't beat A10 AIPF.
